DIMITAR NEVOV
Piano Concerto & Ballade No 2 Ivo Varbanov, (piano), Royal Scottish National Orchestra, Emil Tabakov conductor [ Hyperion / CD - released 7/Jul/2017 ] A refusal to toe the party line in communist Bulgaria led to polymath Dimitar Nenov being marginalized in life, and to posthumous neglect. But this is hugely enjoyable music, well worthy of revival in such fiercely committed performances as we find here. |

LIEBERMANN
Flute Concertos (with works by Poulenc and Nielsen) Katherine Bryan (flute) / Royal Scottish National Orchestra / Paul Daniel [ Linn Records SACD / Hybrid SACD - released 1/Sep/2010 ] "Bryan revels in the [Liebermann's] mix of long-breathed lyricism and devil-may-care acrobatics...She's also a delectably poised exponent of Poulenc's ravishing Sonata (heard in Lennox Berkeley's perfectly judged orchestration)." (Gramophone) |
